Report to the police, its called noise pollution, he has to look for a way to reduce the noise in such a way it doesn't disturb you too much... Or else we all start the pollution together... Buy this #36k home theater, the bass box, position it towards his room, put on your DVD player to auto play when going to work, ensure there is no peace in the neighborhood, when some neighbor's come to you, give them the condition only if he stops disturbing you, then you stop if not, let everyone go and get his woofer... Shea we all want to be MAD in this country...

You want to report your neighbor to the same government that denied you access to stable and constant supply of electricity?

Are you normal? You should be reporting the government to your neighbor, so you both can discuss how to vote out the crazy "gonment" in power.

Stable electricity is a fundamental human right. With crazy deadlines, I won't deny myself and my client their paid services because you've got sleep problems.

Just send him an anonymous polite note and let him know. If he’s considerate he may change but if not, then you can change the tone of your note from polite to aggressive

Hello nairalanders, Please as I am typing this short piece, am seriously boiling with rage as am unable to sleep. There is a building beside my house where one of the occupants is always putting on his gen at any slightest opportunity of NEPA outage.

The most annoying aspect is that he uses the generator deep into the night and the noise usually affects my sleep. Presently, there is light in the area but I guess they did not recharge their prepaid meter so he switched on his generator since around 7pm and he is yet to switch it off as am typing.

Is a tenant given the right to switch in his gen overnight while denying others the right to good night rest. I am thinking of reporting him to the appropriate Lagos State authority but don't know which one can take it up seriously.
domt blame your neighbor, blame Nigeria

Do you have a generator? If yes then I've got great news!
Any day you there's power supply, put on your own generator overnight, ensure it's close to his end as well so the noise can overwhelm him. Do this for about 5 times, hell confront you about the matter and that'll be the perfect time to talk some sense (calmly) into his head.
The thing will make him have a rethink unless he's unbothered when it comes to sleeping in noisy environments.

.... I don't understand you..... No be you dey pay rent for am.... No be you get the house wen e dey stay..... And u are angry that he turns on his gen wen he doesn't have nepa light? Bros if e like e run the gen from night till morning, it's his money.... If u feel disturbed, pack out of the area..... Do u know if he has kids who don't like heat? He should deny them comfort because of one unhappy neighbor? Bros no dey do this kind thing make people no come dey reason you as enemy of progress..... There are no restrictions in the hood limiting the use of generators..... You should blame the Nigerian government for not being able to provide steady electricity.... Not the poor man who is trying to survive......go and buy your own generator.... Buy ear pods....i think 3M have some great ear pods that reduces noise.... Buy them and stop complaining or better still, pack out of the environment to a place where neighbors don't have generator to turn on...... Don't expect someone to live in discomfort because of you when he can easily afford a peaceful sleep... If you are comfortable sleeping inside heat and darkness, he is not

if you wake up by 2am and the sound still annoys you, just carry salt, open the gen cap and pour inside, cover it back, go back to sleep. The gen will be running but later off by itself.
.... If he does it, believe me.... God won't forgive you for giving him such an advise... How would you like it if someone is angry that you are trying to make your family comfortable..... Is it the man's fault that there is no constant light? Bros no dey advise people to do evil... If e happen, you go share for him punishment... If the house no allow am stay, he should pack out...

You've probably gotten a Yahoo boy as neighbour, that's one of their characteristics

Stop this poverty thought pattern. It is not everyone who runs generator whenever NEPA goes to sleep that is a yahoo boy.

As for me, I hate to come back home roaming inside a dark house, be it afternoon or night. Your government plunged us into this mess. We have to solve it in the best possible way.

If neighbours can't cope, then they should relocate. sad I have not apology for the inconveniences. They should go get an apology from their government. sad
